In any order or decision issued by the board in resolution of a disciplinary proceeding in which disciplinary action is imposed against a licensee, the board may direct the licensee to pay the board a sum not to exceed the reasonable and actual costs, including reasonable attorney’s fees, incurred by the board in the investigation and prosecution of the case. When applicable, the licensee’s license may be suspended until the costs are paid to the board. A licensee may challenge the reasonableness of any cost item in a hearing under chapter 28-32 before an administrative law judge. The administrative law judge may approve, deny, or modify any cost item, and the determination of the administrative law judge is final. The administrative hearing must occur before the licensee’s license may be suspended for nonpayment.
